Color lithograph showing the stem, leaves and umbel of orange flowers of Rhododendron javanicum, a plant in the family Ericaceae native to Southeast Asia.

This species had only recently been introduced to Europe at the time of publication and it was said to be natural, that is, it hadn’t been crossbred with any greenhouse species or variety.
